How to open context menu in a panel on left click

[omarb31328459]

I was wondering if there is a simple way to open the context menu on left click event. I have tried triggering the oncontextmenu event using javascript, but the native context menu is not showing. Does anybody have any idea how to do that ?

You can't do that with JavaScript. But why would you? The functions available in context menus are exposed to scripting.

The requirement from the customer is to have the context menu displayed, when the user hovers a line from a list, and left clicks over an icon that is displayed only on hovering.
